I've got my Merry Monday card done for this week.
Here's the sketch Leslie gave us.
I used a digital stamp by Torico (Birdie Brown). It was a freebie a year or so ago. I think he's one of the cutest snowmen I've ever seen. I colored him with Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango markers and punched him out with a 1 3/4" circle punch. I used the Indigo marker to color around the edge since I was mounting it on another white piece.
The paper is some that I won as blog candy on the Merry Monday site a while back. I love that it has a knitted appearance like a nice warm scarf.
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
Card Recipe
Stamps: Snowman (Birdie Brown), Easy Events
Ink: SU Markers (Island Indigo, Tangerine Tango), Whisper White
Paper: Island Indigo, Whisper White, DP
Other: White EP, Big Shot, Snow Flurries EF, 1 3/4" Circle, Large Scallop Circle, 2 1/2" Circle and Corner Rounder punches
I really like this sketch and found it fun and easy to work with. Why not give it a try yourself. I really love that I'm getting at least one Christmas card done each week. Some weeks I get two done. And they're all different.
I'm so glad you stopped by. I really appreciate your visits and look forward to your comments.
Enjoy!

Oh, Bonnie, he really is the cutest and you did a beautiful job with the markers! To me the paper looks like snowflakes, which is also cool!
